The colon mucus layer is organized with an inner colon mucus layer that is impenetrable to
bacteria and an outer mucus layer that is expanded to allow microbiota colonization. A major …

Mucin type O‐glycosylation is one of the most diverse types of glycosylation, playing
essential roles in tissue development and homeostasis. In complex organisms, O‐GalNAc …

Exocytic and endocytic compartments each have their own unique luminal ion and pH
environment that is important for their normal functioning. A failure to maintain this …

Mucus is made of enormous mucin glycoproteins that polymerize by disulfide crosslinking in
the Golgi apparatus. QSOX1 is a catalyst of disulfide bond formation localized to the Golgi …

In humans, the UDP-N-α-D galactosamine: polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferases
family (ppGalNAc-Ts, GalNAc-Ts or GALNTs) comprises 20 isoenzymes. They are …

Abstract The Conserved Oligomeric Golgi (COG) complex, a multi-subunit vesicle tethering
complex of the CATCHR (Complexes Associated with Tethering Containing Helical Rods) …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) carry out prime physiological roles as intracellular signaling
agents, yet pathologically high concentrations of ROS cause irreversible damage to …

Every eukaryotic cell is covered with a thick layer of complex carbohydrates with essential
roles in their social life. In Deuterostoma, sialic acids present at the outermost positions of …

Hypoxia is one of the major threats to the aquaculture sector resulting in substantial
economic losses to the fish farmers. Thus, tolerance to hypoxia is of high economic interest …

Glycosylated neuropeptides were recently discovered in crustaceans, a model organism
with a well‐characterized neuroendocrine system. Several workflows exist to characterize …
